Culture and the Politics of Third World Nationalism (Hardcover)

Dawa Norbu combines insights based on an understanding of specific political systems in the Third World and a deep knowledge of nationalist activity within these systems, with a theoretical framework that seeks to draw out the universal significance of the events. The author's personal experience of nationalism in Tibet, in India and in the United States together with a sociological analysis of ten case studies inform an argument that pays particular attention to how nationalism is moulded by local cultural factors. Areas discussed include South Asia, the Middle East, Western Europe and Latin America. Dawa Norbu also offers an analysis of the relationship between Marxism and nationalism. He argues that the importance of nationalism as an enduring social force in international politics is especially evident from its appearance in societies that are explicitly founded upon transnational ideals.
